Johnny Fernandes dd5ac669e5 Webots sim-to-real fixes, DAgger pipeline, 360° proto variant 
Today's session worked across the full Webots delivery stack — found and
fixed a cluster of bugs blocking the BC/RL transfer, then explored
training-side mitigations for the residual perception gap.

Bug fixes:
- Makefile FP_RATE default 2.0 → 0.0: BC demos used fp_rate=0 but RL
  fine-tune defaulted to fp_rate=2, poisoning the BC obs distribution
  and stalling PPO at 0% success across 1.46M+ steps.
- controllers/{shepherd_dog,sheep}/runtime.ini: Webots was launching
  controllers under system python3 (no numpy) and they were crashing
  silently. Pinned to the conda tir env.
- herding/config.py HERDING_WEBOTS preset: pen_latch_depth 0.5 → 2.0,
  max_new_tracks_per_step 3 → 1, static_reject 0.8 → 1.2. Stops phantom
  FPs near the gate from latching as permanently-penned tracks.
- herding/perception/sheep_tracker.py: penned tracks now decay at
  forget_steps × 8 instead of living forever. Adds get_positions
  min_freshness filter for deploy-time use.

Training/eval matches deployment:
- training/bc/collect.py: --dagger-policy flag for DAgger rollouts
  (policy drives, teacher labels) + --use-webots-preset for matched
  140° tracker + DR config.
- controllers/shepherd_dog/shepherd_dog.py: scan-fallback (0, 0.6) when
  BC/RL sees empty sheep_positions — recovers from FOV gaps.

Tooling:
- tools/dagger_round.sh: one-shot DAgger round (collect + concat + bc).
- tools/webots_sweep_gt.sh: full sweep with HERDING_USE_GT=1 for the
  perception-gap diagnosis matrix.
- protos/ShepherdDog360.proto: 360° FOV variant for the FOV-ablation
  comparison. Canonical proto stays at 140° per project spec.

Artifacts: v1 BC/RL policies for all 4 (drive × world) combos trained
in clean gym (success: diff/field 90-100%, diff/round 58%, mec/field
60-100%, mec/round 50-100%). DAgger r1/r2 BCs for diff/field show
12%→38% progression on gym HERDING_WEBOTS proxy but did not close
to actual Webots LiDAR (0/5 throughout). Next: LSTM policy or
learned tracker per the project-state memory.
